The object of the present invention is an improvement in theconstruction of multiple-flooredbuildings, Where the supporting pillarsare produced of concrete-and-iron, while the horizontal girders of theskelton consist of profile irons.

According to the invention the horizontal girders, supporting the load,are connected with the vertical longitudinal reinforcements, that is tosay, they rest upon distance pieces of the longitudinal reinforcements,upon flat-, angleor other irons welded on the same. i

In the accompanying drawings, I have by way of example illustrated someforms of my invention.

Figures 1, 2 and 3 represent one of the forms,Fig. 1, a sectionaleleVati'on,-Fig. 2, a horizontal sectional View, on the line A-B in Fig.1,Fig. 3, a perspective View.

Figs. 4, 5 and 6 illustrate another form, wherein Fig. 4 is a sectionalelevation,Fig. 5, a horizontal sectional View on the line CD in Fig. 4and Fig. 6, a perspective view.

body 3. The latter serves at the same time" as a distance piece betweenthe round iron bars. The tube-like body 3 supports the ceiling ointI-beam 7, while thesecondary oist 8 is attached to the I-beam 7. Thelongi tudinal reinforcements are encircled by wire hoopings 2. In orderto maintain the continuous character of the hoopings, the same aresurrounded by a kind of double spiral coupling 4. The top face of thefloor is indicated by the dot and dash line 5, the bottom face by thedot and dash line 6.

The longitudinal reinforcements of the form shown in Figs. 4, 5 and 6are represented by two U-irons 9, spaced by the flat irons 10. Uponthese pieces 10, an I-beam ceilingjoist 7 rests. The wire hooping 2 andthe surrounding double spiral coupling 4 are formed, as shown in Figs.1, 2 and 3.

In the form, illustrated by Figs. 7, 8 and 9, angle irons 11 aredisposed as longitudinal reinforcements. Each of the U-irons 12 isscrewed to two of the angles 11. The U-irons 12 represent a ceilingjoist. The-spirals are similar to those in the preceding forms.

In all these forms holes are formed in the stays of the ceiling joistirons, in order to receive the windings of the double spiral coupling 4.In the case, represented by Figs. 7 8 and 9 the last mentioned spiral istapered towards the bottom. This conical spiral forms the wire hoopingof the head of the column below the ceiling.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent- 1. In reenforced concrete construction, a verticalcolumn comprising interconnected longitudinal reenforcing members,carrier members associated with and extending transversely to saidcolumn, said carrier members having perforations therethrough in a zoneadjacent to said column, and a wire encircling said column and extendingthrough the perforationsin the carrier member.

2.'In reenforced concrete construction, a 7

vertical column comprising longitudinal reenforcing members, spacerswithin said column, the longitudinal members being secured to the outersurfaces of said spacers, 855 a carrier member traversing the column andresting upon one of said spacers, said carrier member havingperforations therethrough in a zone adjacent to said column and a wireencircling said column and exno tending through the perforations in thecarrier member.

3. In reenforced concrete construction, a vertical column comprisinginterconnected longitudinal reenforcing members, carrier members securedto the outer sides of said column, said carrier members havingperforations therethrough in a zone adjacent to said column and a Wireencircling said col- 1 umn and extending through the perforations in thecarrier members.

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
